    As a one off it would have made for a profitable venture and a fans delight. Perhaps an album release should have been what RTL was all about about as opposed to a world tour. A lot simpler and...

    I think ‘Love Hangover” would have been just as big a hit with say Donna Summer on lead, so the production must take a huge chunk of the credit.
    I certainly think Diana lends the song a fun...

    LOL. Just a pipe dream, but do wonder what kind of albums they might have recorded had they reformed. I’m guessing ‘Workin Overtime would have been a non-starter.

    63 to 81 were all brilliant in different ways. As already mentioned, after that the singing took a backseat to other elements of the show.

    Diana should have reformed the group with Mary and Cindy at the time her solo recording career prematurely hit the rocks on home soil around 86. The media would have been a buzz, while being an...

    Indeed they were with five top ten hits, and almost six with “River Deep Mountain High” reaching #11. They easily could have scored more had a more commercial song than “Touch” been released and a...

    I tend to agree. The single edit sounds far more polite.

    I’m impressed. Given your youthful years, i thought you were going to think Linda who??.
    You may be right about the lack of vocal sophistication not being Supreme enough.
    By the same token, i ...

    Had the album charted as high as those Diana Ross & Supremes albums mentioned at #28, #31 or #33 i would say that it charted reasonably well. Farewell and Talk Of The Town being live albums released...

    Not sure about the lovely Denise Williams, but there was the perfect type voice in pop/soul singer Linda Carr.
    Check her out singing the hit “High Wire” on you tube. Vey Dianaish.

    Given that Diana would forever cast a long shadow over the group, was it a voice the public ever wanted or even associated with the Supremes.
    The material on both HE and MS&S was too notch, but...

    I think to some degree it was more to do with the sound and style the general public associated with the Supremes. Had Scherrie been lead on “Up The Ladder To The Roof”, i doubt the record would have...

    I really like the arrangement, being a lot more interesting than Diana’s. Would have sounded much better with just the female lead. I can sing better than this guy lol.

    I disagree brad. I prefer this version, but only just. As it stands, the song hardly set the charts alight, but think Susaye’s lighter, more pop approach might have been better suited for mainstream...

    Susaye sounding very Denise Williams on this version of the song. It’s lighter, brighter and kinda more fun than the Scherrie led version which might well have made all the difference. It’s also the...

    The thing being, the arrangements are so dissimilar it’s like comparing two separate songs.

    It certainly had all the ingredients for another hit, far more so than the sophisticated, but far less commercial “Reach Out I’ll Be There”.

    “”Someday” was the perfect song to bow out on, while “Reach Out & Touch” proved just as valuable a song despite it not being a smash.
